Hugh Grant joins Cloud Atlas cast
Hugh Grant has become the latest addition to the film adaptation of David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas.
Grant will be joining the likes of Tom Hanks, Jim Broadbent, Halle Berry, Susan Sarandon, Hugo Weaving, Ben Whishaw, Jim Sturgess, David Gyas and Keth David. Quite the impressive list of A listers don’t you think?
Chinese actress Zhou Xun and Doona Bae from Korea will also be joining the cast of the film.
The movie is being independently produced, so to gain a such an amazing cast is one hell of a feat, but it must have something to do with the unconventional book that’s being adapted that has drawn them to the script.
The Wachowski brothers and Tom Tykwer will direct the film, they also wrote the script for the film adaptation. Can anyone say talented?
The film is being shot in Scotland with filming beginning at the end of this week, and will be hitting cinemas near you in late 2012.
